Rome & Roll: Gladiators live now!
about 3 years ago – Wed, Feb 24, 2021 at 08:27:30 AM

We're excited to let you know that Rome & Roll: Gladiators is now live on Kickstarter.

While Rome is being rebuilt, the public demands entertainment!

Emperor Nero wants you to sponsor games in the Colosseum, where gladiators will engage in thrilling battles for the enjoyment of the crowds. Do you have what it takes?

Gladiators is a new expansion to last year's euro-roll-and-write hybrid that adds variety and new paths to victory for the base game.

Rome & Roll: Gladiators has already met the funding goal, and is now on the path to unlocking stretch goals.

The first one revealed is a new Character Expansion, including 2 new playable characters and alternative warehouse tiles, free to all backers (worth £10).

Pledge Now!

Thanks!

Announcing the Gladiators Expansion + Wrapping up the current campaign
over 3 years ago – Fri, Oct 23, 2020 at 11:27:42 PM

Introducing the Gladiators expansion

We’re happy to announce the Gladiators expansion for Rome & Roll. Coming to Kickstarter in early 2021, the expansion is designed by the original design team of Dávid Turczi and Nick Shaw.

“Our aim with the Gladiators expansion was to enhance the combos that made the core game kick, and push them to eleven!” says Dávid Turczi.

As in the core game, players find themselves rebuilding the city of Rome following the great fire of 64 AD, but now they must also meet the public demands for entertainment! Emperor Nero tasks players with sponsoring games in the Colosseum, where gladiators will engage in thrilling battles for the enjoyment of the crowds.

Find out more information on the Gladiators website and we hope to see you return as a  backer in 2021!

Wrapping Up

We completed fulfilment of the Rome & Roll about a month ago, so it is now time to wrap up our campaign. BackerKit surveys are now closed and we will stop regularly monitoring the comments on this campaign.

Backer support

If you were late in completing the survey, have not received your game, or have a problem with what was received, please contact us at [email protected]. This is the quickest way for us to provide you with assistance.

What’s next

We’d love you to continue contributing to our online community, so please head over to the BGG entry for Rome & Roll to post further comments and engage in the forums.

You can also follow PSC Games on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for the latest news. We’ve got big things planned for 2021, including the Gladiators expansion, and we’d love for you to be a part of them.

Finally, thanks again for backing our project and bringing Dávid and Nick’s wild euro-style roll and write dream to life.

US Shipping Update / Revised Rulebook
over 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 02, 2020 at 06:55:03 PM

Greetings Rome & Rollers,

Two quick bits of news for you today: US shipping has started, and we’ve posted a revised rulebook online. Read on for details…

Shipping

  • English language games for the US & Canada: QML started shipping games last Friday and will finish fulfilment by Friday of this week.
  • English language games for all destinations except the US & Canada: All games were sent from our UK warehouse by the time of our last update on 24 August. Some packages are taking a little longer in some areas of Europe, so please be patient if yours is not with you yet. For destinations farther from us like Australia and New Zealand, please allow additional time for shipping. Tracking info is not available for these games.
  • Language editions: Fulfilment by our language partners is underway in most languages, with others to begin soon.

Digital Rulebook

We’ve caught a few minor typos in the rulebook. An updated version is available for download here. You can also check the files section of the game’s BoardGameGeek entry to see a list of changes to the document.

Backer Support

If there are any problems with the game once received, please send us an email with a photo of what you received along with your address to [email protected] and we will take care of things for you. 

What’s Next?

We will post another update once the fulfilment of the language editions is complete.

As always, you can check out the BGG entry for Rome & Roll and engage in the forums, or follow PSC Games on Twitter and Facebook for the latest news.

Shipping Update - US & Canada Timing / Other English language shipping complete!
over 3 years ago – Mon, Aug 24, 2020 at 10:35:35 PM

We’re back with another shipping update today.

Here’s the latest:

  • English language games for all destinations except the US & Canada: Fulfilment is now complete! All games have been shipped from the UK for all destinations aside from the US and Canada. We finished up a few days early so backers in the UK and Europe should have received their games by now.
  • English language games for the US & Canada: Unfortunately, the boxes of Kickstarter exclusives became separated in shipping and have caused an additional delay as we have missed our fulfilment window. All of the exclusives have now been received and we are slotted for early September. The good news is that QML is prepared and shipping will only take 3-4 days once it begins. We will post another update once fulfilment begins in the US & Canada. As we are very close to fulfilment beginning, address change requests will no longer be possible after today.
  • Language editions: The Kickstarter exclusive minis have been received by our language partners and fulfilment is underway in most languages, with others to begin in September.

Backer Support

If there are any problems with the game once received, please send us an email with a photo of what you received along with your address to [email protected].

What’s Next?

We will post another update once QML begins fulfilment in the US and Canada.

We are working on an updated PDF of the rulebook which will fix some minor typos. We will post the file on BGG and our website once it is ready.

As always, you can check out the BGG entry for Rome & Roll and engage in the forums, or follow PSC Games on Twitter and Facebook for the latest news.
